Philadelphia Eagles DFS Spin
Eagles CB Darius Slay (knee) will not play in Week 6 against the Jets. As expected, defensive tackle Jalen Carter was also ruled out. Per head coach Nick Sirianni, Slay is not expected to miss a lot of time with the knee issue. Even down multiple starters on defense, the Eagles should handle business versus the Zach Wilson-led Jets. They will hope to have Carter and Slay back for Week 7 against the Dolphins.
New York Jets DFS Spin
Jets ruled out CB Sauce Gardner (concussion) for Week 6 against the Eagles. What was initially listed by the team as an illness earlier in the week has now been changed to a concussion. With the Jets set to enter a Week 7 bye, Gardner should have plenty of time to clear concussion protocol to return in Week 8 against the Giants. Also inactive for the Jets in Week 6 is fellow cornerback D.J. Reeder, not ideal with a matchup with the 5-0 Eagles on tap. Michael Carter and Bryce Hall are likely going to be asked to play most of the snaps in the secondary.

Eagles vs. Jets Prediction:
Take Philadelphia. I don’t understand why this spread isn’t bigger. Without Gardner and Reeder, the Jets will have issues containing the Eagles’ weapons in the passing game.
Granted, the Eagles enter play today with their own injury problems on defense, but they have more than enough depth to overcome the issue. I expect them to load up the box, slow down Breece Hall and force Zach Wilson to beat them through the air. That’s not a winning recipe for the Jets.
Eagles vs. Jets NFL Prediction: PHILADELPHIA EAGLES -6.5
